But good call on realizing Plaxico was gonna shoot himself in the leg and as he puts it “nearly killed my own self”

Fri, 28 Aug 2009 15:32:18 +0000http://localhost/wp/nbcprofootballtalk/?p=36173#comment-239839When oh when will they learn — the Steelers NEVER dump a guy without good reason. And the suckers still bite on, picking up players on rep only and usually overpaying. Yancey Thigpen, Kendrell Bell, Marvel Smith — the beat goes on.
Next up: Nate “Whirlpool” Washington.

Good luck Marvel – the Steelers O-line will miss you.
